Within reason, and whenever appropriate, you should Treat Yo Self. Whenever you’re having a bad day, a good day, or a meh day – do a little something for you. Even if it’s just grabbing a coffee.

So, this Valentine’s Day, let’s all do just that. This is really a BS, commercial holiday anyway. A holiday for couples only? No. Show yourself some love and get a lil’ something purdy. When it comes to purdy things, Dogeared has plenty of items to choose from. I fell in love with this large Heart Ring. It comes in silver and gold, and in a variety of sizes. Or check out the rest of their jewelry. It’s all gorgeous and reasonably priced.
